KHUAN + KTRON is....

A fully equipped and fully staffed modern graphic studio dedicated to the manufacturing of brightly coloured & eccentric pictures of the floating world. The ranges of work consist of info & typo graphics, packaging designs, leaflets, brochures and books. Comissioned work is mostly focused on arts, culture, education and other non-profit causes in harmony with particular lifestyles.

KHUAN + KTRON is....

(NTD) Ningtiendo Sehgah (Japan, born 1976) was raised by his aunt in Belgium with all the trades of a modern Japanese upbringing: manga, computer games, fluorescent sweets and double school hours. At eighteen, he left for Antwerp to study the noble graphic arts, and started distilling his trademark stylings from his slightly frenzied education. After ten years on the job, he still feels like he's only just starting — so much more to learn and see and do.

(STBZ) Steebz a.k.a. ACPL (Belgium, born 1976) "Half of what I am is what I do — today. The rest of what I am is what I ate — yesterday. It passes through me; that's why they call it the past. No need to make a big deal of that."

(MXM) Mikail Mitmalka (Russia, born 1972) is newest member of KTRON team and likes to speak European in gruff monosyllables to show he comes from elsewhere. Big strong man with arms like trees, but small heart for inside. Mikail is great-great-grandson of Wladimir Mitmalka, famous in his home town for painting grand icons with gold; Mikail is self-schooled in drawing and painting with nostalgic feeling. Since short time Mikail lives and works in KHUAN monastery and he likes this very much, because there he may draw and paint and meditate long time and not talk much, since body language is more better than words. Chop woods for the stoves. Scare off monastery trespassers and wild animals. And the winters are more soft than in the Mother Land and the summers too. And the food is more better and more plentiful, with a lot of unknown vegetables from the monastery garden where he works too, under the sun and under the moon.

My opinion:

I personally love these type of graphics, they are very eye catching and grab your immediate attention. With the dynamic use of colours & gradients there illustrations are MARVELLOUS. Along with the use of curving shapes and objects blending and hiding throughout one another its like a visual sensation for eyes.
